Incredible HBS Admissions Consultant

When I decided to apply to business school in 2010, I knew I wanted to work with an admissions consultant who would help me bring my applications to the next level. I did extensive research and ended up interviewing about 10 different consultants. After speaking with Alex, it was clear that he was by far the best. There were a number of things that stood out after our initial call that impressed me – his Harvard MBA, marketing experience, and, most of all, his passion for really understanding the nuances of his clients’ collective experiences.

I worked with Alex over the course of several weeks to write my Harvard and Stanford applications. As we worked together, I liked that he took the time to really understand me and to think creatively about how to incorporate these details into my essays. Ultimately, it was this attention to detail that made my essays go from feeling like a laundry list of accomplishments to character-revealing story. I also appreciated that he was quick to turn around drafts of essays, was always available when I needed to talk on the phone, and always provided honest, direct, and actionable feedback. I ended up getting interviews at both and ultimately joined the Class of 2013 at Harvard.

The major reason why I felt compelled to write a review now some years later is that since working with Alex in 2010, we’ve stayed in touch and he has provided invaluable career advice. Alex has helped me think through various professional opportunities and I still rely on his thoughtful questions and unbiased perspective. I have also recommended his services to all my friends and he has helped at least 6 of them get into top schools like HBS, GSB, Wharton, Booth and NYU. Everyone that I have referred to him has only had great things to report back to me. Many credit Alex with helping them craft a story that truly makes their application stand out. My younger brother is applying to business school this year and plans to work with Alex.
